Hello,

I download the file hyperdbg_20100325_auto_1280x1024.zip and I got below error message after I use hypergui to load hyperdbg.sys.
Unable to start driver service (error #31).
I also try used OSR Driver Loader to load hyperdbg.sys and got the same error message.
Today I use svn to download the newest version (r132) and then compile it.
But I got a different error message (Unable to start driver service (error #2).)
My system is pure Win XP SP3 32-bit with PS/2 keyboard and the Intel CPU has VT-x.
I already suffer on this for two days. Does anyone know how to solve this issue?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,

thanks for your interest in our project! Would you mind installing
dbgview (http://technet.microsoft.com/it-it/sysinternals/bb896647.aspx)
and running it *before* trying to install hyperdbg.sys? Be sure to
check the menu option to intercept kernel messages
(http://www.hristopavlov.net/OccultWatcher/Troubleshoot/dbgview.JPG
*capture kernel* must be checked). The dbg messages of hyperdbg loader
would help you understand what the problem is. Maybe you didn't
eliminate WIN7 related define in the Makefile, or ENABLE_EPT is
defined while the CPU does not support it. In any case, the debug
message should help you find the problem. If not, just post it here.

Thanks,
Aristide

Hi joystick,

I got log from dbgview as below. Is my CPU not support VMX?
Thanks.

Hi,

if you're on a physical cpum there may be 3 cases:
1) your CPU does not have VMX support (unlikely). Which model is it?
http://ark.intel.com/ usually contains every info on your CPU,
including VMX support
2) VMX support is disabled in the BIOS
3) there's a bug in the hyperdbg code that checks for VMX support.

Please let us know if it is 1) or 2) :)

Hi joystick,

This's the link of my CPU model. It seems I really need to buy a new desktop. I'd appreciate your help.

Mm too bad :-) I'd suggest you to buy an i7, but unfortunately there
are no mobo AFAIK that support i* CPUs and has PS/2 ports :(
